overturned. The ice hIses started
one way and the swin horses an
other, each with the poe and front
trucks of their respective wagons.
The ice team started up Howard
street at furious gllop. The
street was crowded with teams at
the time but they managed to get
out of the way. Near ths corner Of
Sprague street two emlty teams
were standing, one belonging to
Mead & Co., the other to Mr.. Dob
son. Along came the ice horses at Il
mad gallop, their broken harness fly
ing about them, the font truck
bounding and slewing frm side to
side behind them. They passed in
close proximity to Meats horse,
some even saying that he vas struck
by the wheels, but ut any nte he be-
came excited and added tn the con-
fusion by starting off al break
neck in the direction of the cracker
bakery. Meanwhile the original
runaWays had collided with Dobson's
team, capsizing and turning 1t COM
pletely around and throwing il upon
the sidewalk. Some In the crowd
had presence of mind and cour-
age enough to hold on to
Mr.. Dobson's horse, thus
preventing another runaway.
The scene was exciting at this point,
as large crowd was sureing hither
and thither, while the horses, wild
With fear, were plunging madly for
ward, threatening destruction to
whatever might obstruct their path.
Fortunately the road was cOmpara.
lively clear by this time and no fur
ther accidents were caused. The
ice horses continued to run until the
wheels brought up against post.
Meanwhile Mead's team had come
to grief on the rocks back Of the
cracker factory, horse and wagon
both capsizing. The horses attached
to the sWill team ran up Riverside
avenue for some distancebefore they
were captured. The ice horses were
badly cut about the legs. Mr.. Mead's
horse WAS bruised and scratched Sc
verely and may have suffered some
internal injuries. One of McDugla's IS
animals was also cut badly on the
fore leg. The ice and swill wagons
were both badly wrecked, Mead s
wagon had its springs broken and

wise badly broken. No one seems
to know what started the runaways
but some think that they were
frightened by McDuga and his

Yesterday afternoon two double
teams were standing TRANQUILITY in
the little court in the rear of the Ar

ice company, the other was the prop
erty of Mr.. McDougal, farmer liv-
ing in the outskirts of the city. The

cause as yet undiscovered, the horses

through the narrow alley leading to

tn Boodler's Case.

CHICAGO, august 6.--This afternoon.
states attorney Grinnell called up the1
motion for new trial for the conyict.J
ed boodlers. In doing so he stated
they had not yet had the decency 10
hand in their designations and he de.
manded that they do so at once. II
seems that the refusal on the part NJ
the boodlers to resign under the cir.
cumstances has produced deadlock
that will prevent the levying OF anv
taxes for the county. The conyiction
of an Infamous crime makes vacant
the Office held by criminal but tbe
laws framed by the county board must
declare that the vacancy exists, and
without the cooperation Of the bood.
lers this can hardly be done. After
much discussion counsel for the de.
fense succeeded in getting matters de-
layed until Monday, with the under
standing that the boodlers resign in
the meantime. The time of arguing
the motion for new trial would be

Crnelty to Animals.

What is needed in this city is q
society for the prevention of cruelty
to animals. Every little while at
tention is called to some aggravated
case of some one cruelty abusing "A
dumb animal. Yesterday out on
east Main street n teamster was seen
to brutally beat one Of his horses over
the head with "A rock. He pounded
the animal until it was bleeding at
both nostrils and could hardly stand
up. ~ lady who witnessed the bru-
tai performance demonstrated with
the man, who stopped for a time,
but as soon as the lady passed he
continued the performance. A man
who would cruelty abuse a dumb
animaldeserves punishment through
the medium of the law, and just for
the purpose Of bringing such men
up with II round turn, n society as
suggested above should be organized.

While the eastern bound train was

While the eastern bound train was
stopping at the station yesterday
morning considerable amusement
was caused by conversation
between Il passenger and an en-
thusiast!c Spokaneitc on the plat
form. The conversation turned
on the prospects of the cIty, and the
Spokanite was rehearsing with the
volubiIity of Yankee the advan-
tages Of the town. He wound up
with a glowing description Of our
wonderful water power. The pas
senger was rather incredulous and
asked in a sneering tone how much
water there was. The Sneer was
more than the enthusiastic gentle
man could stand with equanimity,
and getting a little excited he
shouted, "We have enough water to
run all the mills in New York and
Massachusetts, with Rhode Island
thrown in"

Sunday Excursion.

Some time ago the REVIEW sug-
gusted to a. ID. Charlton, general
western passenger agent, the advlsa-
bility of putting on Sunday eXcur-
sion trains on the Spokane g. Idaho
branch running from this city to
Occur d'Alene lake. 1t was felt that
Sunday trains to chat deli ghtful re-
sort would give the people Of Spo-
kane Falls an opportunity to spend
the day in quietness on the banks Of
that lovely lake, and the trip would
be beneficial one to those who are
cooped up with business throughout
the week. In response to the letter
Mr.. Charlton courteously replied
that the company was considering
and every Sunday after, Sunday,
August lith, excursion trains will
be run from here to the lake, con-
Meeting with the boat at Coeur d.
Alene, which will make the round
trip to the Mission, thus giving ex.
cursiouists an opportunity t.
extend their trip to the Mis-
sion if they feel 80 disposed.
The train will leave Spokane Falls
at 7.3O Il. m, and leave Occur d'
Alene, returning, at p. IN. Fare to
Mission and return, SO 90; to Occur
dAlcne and return, Sl.65. There is
no doubt but that this new departure
will be taken advantage of by the
people Of Spokane and vicinity, as
there is not more delightful trip
anywhere in America than 10 lake
Coeur dAlene.
